Best Affiliate Programs For Bloggers and Websites in India

Flipkart is the most popular affiliate program in India, which is very easy to get started. They being the most popular online shop, the conversion rate is very high and you can make good money provided you have a niche blog that offers coupons, deals, discounts, product reviews, gadget news etc.

Signing up with Flipkart is very easy and takes less than a minute to get started. There is no formal approval process before you can start using it. I am not very impressed with the commission structure of Flipkart Affiliate program but they have the best conversions in India. Most bloggers I spoke with are pretty happy with their earnings from this program.

Tradus.com is an online shopping portal, operated by ibibo Web Pvt Ltd and has started becoming popular online shops in India. Tradus.com has an affiliate program, however, the details are not available online. I had some discussions directly with Tradus management and received some additional information.

If you look at the commission structure, Tradus.com offer much better commission rates to affiliates compared to Flipkart. However, Tradus affiliate program is not very popular among the Indian bloggers since they are as popular as Flipkart as an online shop. Also, Flipkart has much better deals and offers, which means most users will prefer to buy from Flipkart leaving the affiliates with less chances of making money.

If you like to monetize through Tradus Affiliate Program, I suggest you pay attention to various deals and offers appear in Tradus.com online shop and be smart to use the links to the best deals.

Tradus.com affiliate program is relatively tough to get started. You first need to apply for their program and then wait for follow up emails from them. If they find your blog worth having in their affiliate program, they will send you a bunch of documents to fill and submit.

IndiaTimes affiliate program is managed by Shoogloo Network, one of the leading affiliate networks.

Amazon affiliates, one of the most preferred affiliate program among bloggers in USA and many other countries, has not yet entered into the Indian market directly. They are using Junglee as their eCommerce wing to test the Indian market and are expected to launch its full eCommerce website early next year. Amazon India is expected to open a lot of opportunities for Indian bloggers.
